Breastmilk Changes During Pregnancy...

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

I've read that pregnancy will make breastmilk saltier than normal.  But could it possibly be affecting my toddler's digestion?  He has had some looser BMs than normal and I wasn't sure if I could possibly be making him sick?  I thought that colostrum wouldn't arrive until mid-way through - I am a little over 8 weeks now...

I was reading old posts saying that tandem nursing can cause toddler-sized blowouts and I am not sure I am ready to deal with that on a daily basis!

we stared having looser stools when I was 20 weeks pregnant, but depending on how soon you start producing colostrum and how much (some women start making it really early, and the milk is part colostrum, part milk for a while) it can happen a lot earlier. we keep it mostly under control by limiting when DD nurses.
